(4) 4-6 Jonny Jakes Investigates series. Illustrated by Alan Brown. The mysterious undercover reporter of banned school newspaper The Woodford Word must conceal his identity. "Jonny Jakes" exposes an alien principal, who will do anything to block those snarky headlines (Hamburgers), and stops a punishment-happy ghost-principal from ruling the school (Ghoul). Despite the over-the-top situations and predictable outcomes, these first-person journal-style stories, dotted with (bland) spot art and occasional newspaper clippings, are entertaining. Review covers the following Jonny Jakes Investigates titles: The Hamburgers of Doom and The Old School Ghoul.
